This guy is a legend. So underrated. This would be impressive in 2024 if a famous youtuber did it with a crew, Les Stroud did this 15 years ago with no crew.
A TH-camr probably could do it without a crew. They'd need a safety crew they can call in of course, but they could do this without having to carry anywhere near as much camera equipment as he does. Just a decent phone camera and a fair amount of external batteries. Get solar charging ones, and they're in even better shape there.
@@AVeryUnstableAIabsolutely not, he's forgotten more about survival than they would ever know.
@@goatlandia8457 I should've said "try it" instead of "do it". They could TRY to do something like this. See how they do.
@@AVeryUnstableAI I'd imagine there would be deaths involved. Maybe if they were to do it like bear grylls they'd have a chance, camera crew and safety experts. No need for youtubers to die for views.
@@goatlandia8457 Nobody wants more Bear Grylls horse shit
what i love is that he spares the sheep because he knows his situation isnt dire, he has a safety net, yet he still mentions that it would be proper in survival.
Oh absolutely, you better believe I’m gonna be having some sheep tacos lol
Bear Grills would club it and eat it raw lol
ian vosik lol you’re absolutely right, “ oh look it’s a porcupine no need to skin it all the nutrients are in the needles” 😂 🤣
@@technologu yeah because bear grylls cares more about shock value than survival
@@technologu then he’d purge before going back to his hotel and ordering room service.
I love how all the comments on Les’ video’s are positive. Not only in quality and thankfulness, but about the nostalgia and sheer ‘back-to-the-roots’ theme. Blessings for the uploads Les!
Yea, except for the fanboys bashing Bear Grylls. So silly.
Les educated an entire generation of kids and I have no doubt his information and survival techniques have saved lives. It’s so wholesome seeing everyone come back to appreciate the great man
@@adamh8517 Yes educated kids. Like how to survive on a deserted island...if you "luckily" find a working washed up lighter on the beach. Or off the coast of Mexico...IF you have a kayak and lots of other stuff. Or in the planes of Africa...IF you already have a made shelter in the form of a hot air balloon cabin. Or how to survive in the winter in Norway...if you happen to run across an empty cottage and have your car. Blah blah blah.
@@mojebi3804 The sad truth is if you really did find yourself stranded with ABSOLUTELY nothing at all, human survival is almost literally impossible in these harsh areas. A person having a lighter, or a pen, or some random item someone might carry with them on any regular day, actually makes sense.
Some of my most memorable moments from childhood was watching this show late at night on cable tv, I seriously thought you were a superhero Les. Still do in a lot of ways. Thanks for all the happy memories.
5:39 the dedication to walk all that way for a shot only to have to walk back and pick up the camera.
I know right!! He is all about his craft.
Part of me wonders if he walked backwards to turn around get the camera and walk the right way
@@ryanfrank2770 that doesnt make sense
He said most of his camera's have trackers on them the crew later come and get them when the camera is about to run out battery
@@ryanfrank2770 no he has to walk back for it. I believe he mentioned in one of the episodes.
This intro music makes me feel like Im 9 years old again, its 2005... nostalgia factor of 9.9
Same but I was 18 lol things were better back then
Same, nostalgia hits so hard
I love it.
lol yeah i was like 11
Yup 20 years old used to watch it after work lovely show parents house Smirnoff ice no cares
Bear Grylls did the Aussie outback and struggled immensely, Les handles it like a boss, would love to see new episodes, Netflix should give this man a show
That's because Bear was all show and drama without much legitimacy at all.
@@ReaperofSouls42 I figured that after years of watching as a teenager, now I can’t stand his shows, too scripted ect.
@@Red.OG. If you haven't yet, you should watch Les's commentary videos, in a couple of them he actually talks about Bear and why he doesn't like him very much. (Apparently he even hates the outdoors according to one of Les's friends who worded with Bear in a video.)
Bears has way more survival training. Both shows aren't as authentic as fans think. Walking around with a crew is something both shows do. Not only bear.
@@tanishazoa138 Uh, actually Les does all the filming (Aside the shots that show the team moving away from him), catching food, survival tip and mistakes by himself. You can even learn about this stuff through google. Bear had his crew do 90% of the work and he came in to finish stuff. Hell, he'd leave the area and eat at restaurants unlike Les. Les is actually legit.
Les is the only TRUE survival expert thats ever been on television. What a maniacally brilliant man. So happy to have you in this world Mr
Stroud
He's frying up grubs in the Australian outback and swooning over the taste of them like I do for 2 am taco bell.
This guys a champ. 👊👊
I remember him saying in a magazine interview that those damn things were one of the best survival foods he ate
They taste like almonds when cooked
Ahh yes 2 am taco bell is this girls survival food lol
Man I love me some Taco Bell
Well taco bell serves horse meat so in a way your not too far from what he's eating. Enjoy.
I mean…he flew the plane. Successfully landed it. The talent he has didn’t quite hit me as a kid. I always knew he was something special…but damn. Just a stupendously talented human right here. Proud to know you exist, Les.
You should hear him play the guitar!
@@I_amTurok look I'm good at everything I do as well but les not only has the ability and knowledge but the experience to match. It's all possible to do and learn and many people spend their lives learning just one of the skills Les keeps in his bag
@@plotholedetective4166 It’s not as if he’s some genius human that no one could ever match. There are lots of guys with just as many skills as Les, and even more than him. Very skilled, no doubt. But the only difference is he films what he does, and most of the other people don’t.
There actually is a directors cut and he said he actually had to rush to learn to fly for this episode. And he had a flight instructor laying down in the back.
He scuba's..He knows about boats,and flying..pretty cool
Man, Les is a straight up beast. I remember being 8 years old and having nightmares of the shows intro. Very vivid dreams of sand dunes or endless oceans, they were very scary at the time. As i got older that fear turned to respect. I regularly dream of wide open spaces far from civilization nowadays, It's really refreshing ironically. Thanks, Les.
Ahhhh that’s sad.
the chances of doing a forced landing in most of outback australia and finding standing water that isn't more salty than the sea is slim to none. this really was a best case scenario.
One of the main reasons that The Bush-Tucker Man became so knowledgeable about the food & water situations of the Aussie Outback was necessity ... after being a decorated soldier sneakin-and-peekin in Vietnam, he was transferred to the fledgling Army Aviation Branch-Rotary Wing... and similar to the ultralight aircraft Les piloted in this ep, BTM was flying all over the Australian Outback in a small, single piston engine, one-person helicopter... with no spare parts and often just enough fuel to supposedly reach his destination. So he knew, there was not only a very real possibility of him going down for one reason or the other, he realized it could happen anywhere, anytime, and there was no Cavalry to mount up a rescue...he could be forced to live off the land for who-knows-how-long. So he forced himself to become an expert in the Aussie Outback and especially food and water.
Les is the original badass. Thanks for putting these on YT. I haven't seen them in years and they take me back to simpler times.
He's the super hero we need
While you were thinking and having simple times Les was suffering and surviving
I concur
Wait. These are old? This is my 1st time seeing this! Ever!!
Simple and well put comment. I remember watching so many of these as a youngster and it's nice to get a hint of that memory as I see les battling nature years later.
I think that splitting a match with a swarm of bugs in his face was the most ZEN thing he ever done.
Les' ability to find, catch and cook all those random animals is impressive even after watching DOZENS of his episodes! This is a whole other level.
I am a older female (68) that teaches young adults how to survive in the deep forests and in the winter as well as the warmer months. . and do what it takes to get found. How to build shelter, fire, look for water, etc..but man, you rock! I really have always wanted to visit Australia, but I don't think I'd survive. Australia is the only country thats trying to kill me. I am not ashamed to say I would, could, should do well there. Hats off to you!
I just had to be eating white cheddar cheese puffs when he found that god damn grub.
I was eating pretzels lol.
I think in this Video Les ate more than nearly any other place he's recorded himself in, and you can just see the difference in energy he has during these videos. It's crazy to see how the body endures harsh elements, little sleep, food, and water. Thank you Les for making these videos and being such an inspirational figure in my life.
yea here his feasting hahah compared to that artic episode.
There’s one time on a cold coast where he gets a ton of Arctic char (not sure how to spell that properly), and another time where he has lots of coconut and clams and fish. But this is pretty high up there.
He ate more in the Cook Islands and Alaska.
this and the cook islands were basically an episode of From Wild to Table for him
@@realtonysolo Right, nearly any other not every other. Thanks for the specifics I guess lol
I seriously doubt Les would ever read this, but you’ve taught me so much. Your family is lucky to have you and I love the fact you’re lucky to have them. Keep on keeping on my brother. You’re a hero in my book.
I did read it bud.
Thank you for watching.
@@Aria432 ????
@@Aria432 LOL
😂
This episode has some of my favorite shots of the show, the time-lapsed sunset, the desert moon, and the wide lens shots of the infinite plains of the Aussie outback. Makes you feel the scorching heat, and at the same time feel the shivering cold of the nights.
"In an emergency situation, nearly anything can be used as an emergency landing zone like highways, flat strips of land, or in our case a landing strip."
🤣🤣🤣
Out of service land strip.
Hopefully the landing strip is well maintained, there can't be anything worse than landing in thick bush .. haha
@@dravakian Yeah. Fully shaved is best.
@@chintoki 👊 my man
I don’t think we appreciate enough his walking away shots. We forget he turns back around to get the camera. What a champ.
Yeah, he pioneered that technique.
It must be hard to survive alone and set up his cameras to get good shots on top of it all les is the GOAT survivalist unlike bear grylls doing all that dare devil shit since he was in the SAS
Hahaha wtf is so good about that .That's impressive to you that he walks back to get his camera ?😂😂😂😂😂
@@oliewray8357I admit fully that I'm not this dude's biggest fan - but the physical aspect of having to basically do everything 3 times, it cannot be overstated how hard that is. Try to think about it ... if he wants a shot of him walking 1000yd "into the desert" in one direction, he has to set up his camera, walk 1000yd with all his gear & pack, GO BACK 1000yd to pick up the camera, RE-WALK the 1000yd this time also carrying the camera , AND THEN keep going with his march and tasks... that's why he gave the show up. It was just too physically demanding to do everything, himself, IN TRIPLICATE. Bear Grylls and Cody & Dave have crews with tents to sleep in, food & water & supplies if needed, and vehicles standing by. This guy has himself, his pack, his cameras, and an emergency satphone.
Les playing harmonica next to a pit of flaming dung is all I need today.
Les needs 4 things when surviving, water, food, fire, and shelter. The more he has, the better his week is. He didn’t have much of a shelter in this episode, but he really didn’t need it.
So 3 out of 4 made for a good week of survival.
Really you could survive for 7 days without food.
Well his first class air flight and his 10k square foot home makes up for this
@@salvagemonster3612 what, ya recon he should live in a shack and catch a ship over to Australia because he does survival shows haha, come on mate
The fact that this man flew an airplane to his survival location is incredible on it's own lol. Les the man!
I'm not poor I do not have a laptop will you buy me one and I will do whatever you say
@@alden285 dafuqqqqqqqqqqqqqq?
Yea I gotchu bro. What’s your address, phone#, SS#, and mother’s maiden name ... Just so I can send it to the right person
@@turbocharged0611 my mommas name be Bigback Irene Sanchez. My phone got disconnected when they took out the payphone close by 15 years ago. I dont have an address or ss either, i remember mommas stories of how she had 5 people on her back sneaking into america, thats why her name is Bigback. Maybe send it to the Reno post office ill pick it up there.
NoMas Chalupas I gotcha bro
I never get tired of watching these. I watched them all years ago, but being able to get on TH-cam and do it? You're an inspiration to us all, Les!
*inspiring all over again.
Les is just your typical Canadian. When we're not playing hockey, we're flying our own ultralight planes into remote areas to take on nature for a week. A jar of maple syrup and we're good to go.
Situations like the ones Les are in really make you appreciate the small things. A soft bed, a warm shower, and a full belly.
I remember the times at university, coming home after a hard track practice on a Friday, warming up some cheap Walmart Delux brand Taquitos rolls and watching survivor man and then myth busters. Go-easy days for sure. ....Now I am about 15 years older and 40lbs heavier...Thanks Les.
Moral of that story is less tacos and more wild grubs after you have stopped all of that running...
13:25 the reasoning behind this survival technique is to prevent sea-bear attacks
“Yabees we have the meat” lol
pretty smart, but it wont save him from a searhinoatttack...
Once they see the rope, all they can do is growl and point at you before going away. The aboriginals certainly knew their stuff
So strange finding a cammycakes comment here lmao
Would a Sombrero help?
I grew up eating crawdads catching them the same way! But with worms. They usually don't let go. One time I caught 72 of them out of lake michigan and we had a feast back at the campsite. You're a hero Les
You would love the Marron here in Western Australia way bigger than a yabbie or crawdad if you caught 72 in or out of season you would have a massive fine and probably jail but they are yummy and fun to catch and way bigger
@@Grisuu I know I was talking about if he had come to WA and caught 72 marron, they have a season and bag limit, catch or even touch one out of season could get you into heaps of trouble .
And your point
It’s crazy how he found so much food! It’s definitely a huge difference from a lot of these other videos .
you are a Legend Les. only one that actual survives FOR REAL. everyone else has camera crews and safety crews and stays at hotels at night while filming
Jim Baird goes solo. Check him out.
@@leoniemusgrave9322 name sounds familiar
Justin Barbour goes with his dog.. His most recent trip was 80-something days.. Check him out..
I second checking out Jim Baird and Justin Barbour on here.
Dude check out Ed Stafford. He films alone and doesn't bring a thing except cameras and a sat phone. Never going to see Ed starting a fire with a lighter.
Those flies would have made me psychotic long before a lack of sleep lmao
Those flies were not that bad, they get a lot worse at times.
In most parts of the Outback you could easily have 100 flies on you at a time. It's incredibly irritating and best dealt with by wearing a mosquito netting hat and tucked into your shirt. (Been there done that)
That was a really good sized yabbie he caught, they're normally smaller than that in arid areas of South Aussie. If he was in Tassie they're up to 3kg !
So it's psychosis when I scream obsenitys at flies?
Flies also mean water probably within 250m or so
Oh yea I would've had one hell of a Psychotic episode! Lol
Hey Les, I grew up on a river and I found the best way to catch crawdads is to put a bucket or a net behind the crawdad, then spook them. They flutter backwards and will go right into your trap.
This helps me in the problems im experiencing thru life. Thank you Les. You're a safer in more ways than you know. You help me continue thru the hardest times. Hope everyone is doing well and stays healthy. Peace be with you fellow humans
Re-binging your show on TH-cam was the salvation of my 2020.
I'm re-re binging
This one looks less like survival and more like thriving. Nice one!
Australia is actually quite habitable if you know what to look for. The issue is that it isnt so conducive to civilisation as a whole (irregular rain cycles, poor soil quality, low area productivity ect)
Oo

Interesting to watch. The Flinders Ranges, where this was filmed, is my old stomping ground. I’ve spent years hiking through this area. The Wilpena Range in the background has some absolutely stunning scenery, much prettier than what we see here. Wes used to hike for days on end, finding beautiful drinking water in the main creek beds. Nowadays however, feral goats have run rampant throughout the ranges, and the waterholes are now undrinkable, meaning you now have to carry all of your water with you. Luckily the government and landowners are working on reducing their numbers, but I doubt it will ever return to how I knew it as a young lad. Still, it is without doubt one of my very favourite places!
Travelled this area many times on the way to Marree
I love how he talks to the animals and has fun out there without positivity you can’t survive for long
“It’s just not humanly possible for a human to run down an emu” 😂
Check out Andrew ucles on TH-cam he catches them :)
Cant even win a war against them
This is my favorite episode because of the food he finds, besides the Georgia Swamp and the beach one with the palm juice. Cheers!
Mine was the costa rica jungle (kayak) one... he was set up and living large within a couple of hours... which would have been a boring show, so he decided to go through the jungle, and almost died and admits it was a horrible decision to up the ante.
Les, I was in boarding school in 2008 and we had one tv. we all loved watching Survivorman. Even when Man vs Wild came on, everyone immediately thought it was too fake and we wanted to watch this instead. You were (are) the real deal.
Love Les Stroud. Type of guy you'd want to go camping with. Be friends with.
Les called he said meet him down at the MANHOLE bar tonight at 8.
Les Stroud is the pioneer of so many filming techniques as well as survival wizardry. There is nothing fake or put on when it comes to Les. He's the realest, most honest guy in the field. I really hope to meet him one day. I can't wait for the next Bigfoot series!!! Keep the amazing content coming Les!
a dream? lol
I've always agreed.
Go to 12:30. Pause it and look real close and tell me that's not two matches.
@@HititFromTheBank He split the one paper match down the middle. I tried this myself after watching Les do it. It absolutely works 100%. You just have to tear it apart slowly and evenly or you'll split the white part into an unusable mess.
@@tb303wpf1 you know what.. Who am i to judge. I'll just go try it.
i'd really love to see an episode of beyond survival with Australian indigenous peoples
I would watch the show after school when I was a kid. So happy to see full episodes on TH-cam!
How old is this video
I live and work out of Alice Springs- around here we call Witchetty Grubs "Maku". "Malu" is kangaroo, though there are four different words in Arrentre for Kangaroo. There is plenty to eat out there- parenti (a type of monitor lizard), feral cats, bush turkey. For more Australian survival, check out Les Hiddins, "The Bush Tucker Man".
Watching Survivor man episodes on TH-cam while everyone is a survivor man or woman during this pandemic is awesome!
Cause everyone is roughing it like les
No no no
FFS get off your easy chair and get a little perspective. He's not even really roughing it... Let alone you or anyone else watching this programming online 🤣🤣🤣
@@sonnylambert4893 you need a nap
@@sonnylambert4893 hey buddy why dont you stick your comments where the sun dont shine
I love it when Les is Thriving and not simply surviving!
Used to watch this when I was a kid, really got me into the outdoors. Things like this make you appreciate TH-cam
This video certainly made the Australian bush look a lot more hospitable than it actually is. Please don't assume that you'll be able to find this much water or "oases" like this, if you get lost in the outback or what is sometimes called the "Red centre". I think the most important thing he should have said, in what was otherwise a great video... If you break down (Plane, car or motorbike), DO NOT under any circumstances leave your vehicle. If you've made all the right preparations before you left and informed people of your route, time of arrival etc, then someone will come looking for you. If you leave your vehicle and get lost (happens ALL THE TIME, even to experienced people), because it's red and flat and everything looks the same, nobody will ever find you! Not unless someone like Les is doing a TV show five years later and randomly finds your rotting corpse beside all the other rotting corpses at the poisoned Creek. Just FYI.
That's a REALLY good point which Les himself has iterated. With the prep beforehand, staying put is your best bet anywhere. This is for when you absolutely NEED to move or its death otherwise.
🤣🤣🤣thanks
100% truth.. but doesn't make for an exciting show 😅
@@ISAFSoldier Oh OK, I see what you mean. It makes much more sense now. Thank you!
So sit there and die of dehydration? Great plan.
Legitimately the most comfortable survival he's ever done in one of the most stereotypically inhospitable places on Earth
0o00o0ó BB h BB iq.
I think Grenada blows this one out the water.
@@Kevin-jb2pv Cook islands maybe? That was pretty comfortable.
He was incredibly lucky to find a creek with water. In summer he would have had a very different time.
He's in Wilpena Pound in South Australia.
@@glenjamindle Definitely the cook islands, he had all the crab and coconuts he could eat. His last feast was enough to almost make me envy him.
Well, the awesome thing about Les uploading these videos on TH-cam is that they will now be here forever. People 1,000 years from how when the world is an entirely different world and half these places he goes doesn’t even exist anymore along with the animals not existing, people will be able to learn from these videos options on how to survive if they end up stranded.
these shows are just so relaxing! Thank you Les!
Nice vid man. However on night two, you slept under the most dangerous Eucalyptus tree we have out of nearly a 1000 different ones. They frequently shed massive limbs hense its a big no no to camp under a Eucalyptus Cameldulensis tree.
The do however provide amazing firewood
The south and south easts favourite, good ole redgum
Thanks for making these incredibly inspiring films, and thanks again for putting them on this platform where I can watch them for free!!
In the desert, you can’t remember your name; for there ain’t no one for to give ya no name. 🎶
The flies don't bite... yeah you got lucky or went to a place they don't. Still one of my favourite eps.
It's amazing how he used to carry around big camcorders , I bet he was happy when go pro's came out lol... Love these shows👍🌎🌏🌍🤙
And when drones came out so they wouldn't have to rent a helicopter to get shots.
I appreciate why you do this... Many people saved their lives because of these videos that you made during survival...
Best survival show ever, and only real one. Les is undisputed in the category.
Ok folks if you are forced to land your plane. STAY WITH IT. Unless you can see homes or cities etc. Because if you filled your flight plan when you don’t show up. They will send out rescue planes. It will be easy for them to spot the big white wings. But not so much man in khaki walking.
Man, all those flies would drive me bonkers.
I'm not sure why he keeps talking about the King Brown snake in that area. He's in Wilpena Pound, South Australia, right on the edge of the snakes known range.
Being Australia though, there's about a dozen other snakes he needs to worry about ! lol
Man how I wish I could go camping with les. That would be so freaking awesome. Absolutely love your channel man. You’re the one and only true realistic survivalist. Thank you so much for being true to your skills and really teaching us. Much love from Michigan!
He only brings a two man sleeping bag. Sure you can work out something for you to stay warm
This dude flys ultralights, air balloons, boats, makes it all look easy, talented guy. Oh and plays the guitar and harmonica as well.
This was the happiest I’ve ever seen les. Cracking up eatin crawdads
Dont have crawdads in Australia
@@joitea5588 ya got yabbies no?
@@joitea5588 there's over 100 species of crayfish in Australia, if you're trying to be a grammar nazi due to the "crawdad" nomenclature then that's on you for being immature.
@@adamgitmed3779 they’re not crawdads
They're yabbies. Drongo.
Dude be stranded out in the desert and eats better than me wtf
Sorta sad I think the same thing every episode 😂😂
lmao ya when i was watching the grenada episode he was eating fresh coconut, mangos and lemons i was thinking the same thing
these shows are just so relaxing! Thank you Les!. Les, you have and have had throughout the years all my respect..
THANK GOD FOR MIRACLES TO keep US ALIVE. i have gotten to use up my wool yarn making a poncho, i had to use acrylic yarn and cotton yarn too to finish. i didnt have enough wool. the small holes in it gave me some air flow and kept me from sweating in it. on the way to the store i walked to. on the way home with my cart full of groceries i did sweat a bit. around the neck. i scarf on too. fun to make first time i made something other than a scarf or blanket.
It's awesome all the old episodes are on TH-cam now!🙌 Nothing like the OG Survivor Man himself, Les Stroud!💯
I’m sure others have mentioned it, but the golden rule in the Aussie outback is to never leave your vehicle. If you’ve organised the trip properly, you’ll have notified friends, relatives or authorities of your intended destination and arrival times so rescuers will be out promptly, usually by air. A vehicle and its tracks are much easier to spot from the air.
Makes for good tv to just wander off with an EPERB though...
If you watch the Norway episode he talks about how staying put can often be fatal. Unless you know FOR CERTAIN that help is coming and knows exactly where you are. There are other episodes where he stays in pretty much the same spot the entire time, it depends what resources are available in the immediats surroundings.
The premise of this show is a worst case scenario.... like a plane crashing. Someone might know your flight plan but the plane could've went down anywhere along it and gone off course during the descent. There are plenty of feasible scenarios where you know help is not going to come anytime soon. In which case you can only stay in the vehicle as long as your water lasts.
@@barahng Here it can be fatal either way, with the balance of probability for survival favoring staying with your vehicle. Unless you get lucky, you're probably not going to find a water source within a survivable radius from your vehicle. It may be the only source of shade. Search and rescue will be done by air and they're going to spot your vehicle not you. As OP said, its a golden rule for a reason here.
@@barahng yeah I get what your saying here but in Australia it's a big no no. People die every year by leaving their vehicle. Australia is just too big and too dry. If you don't know the country and how to read it to get out you will just get dead quicker.
@@tccscott86 Oh yeah for sure, I think I was just drunk and wrote that long winded post to basically say there are exceptions.
What a load of shit....35 year bushman....ohh watch out for the man eating king Browns lol...he ain't even outback. No fuckin sheep in the outback yo...
i love that les drew a picture of canada on the rock near the cave paintings.. what a great scene=) thanks les
The camera is the equivalent of a soccer ball for Les. 😂😂
I'm still waiting for the Survivor Man on Mars episode. Supposedly the hardest Survivor Man ever! I heard Matt Damon actually gave him tips before he left.
Matt Damon has needed more rescues than anyone! If anything Les Would figure his own way home..
@@mattbcameron True. But there’s no air on Mars. Lol they would both die if it was real life
@@No1_Inpa_Ticular that might take a minute to solve..
I'm so happy you started posting these episodes somewhere, I've been looking for this series for years lol
It was on Hulu for a while. Came here because it's not there anymore.
at 19:50, in the background just to the right of Les you can see a 4 legged animal running in the right direction. It appears when he says "heat up this ground" then goes behind the tree trunk for a moment then reappears, it seems like Les doesn't notice at all or mention that there was something around.
Hey Les, there are two reasons flies and mosquitoes don't like dung smoke.
1. They have difficulty seeing in smoke from any source, so they tend to leave.
2. They navigate by smell as much as by sight and animals and humans smell good to them. They don't like the smell of the burning dung.
This episode in Full HD, made my day
Yes, it was 480i SD television when i first watched these
I love Les Stroud! While everyone was on the Man VS Wild hype, I was watching my Canadian friend survive 💯
The only Les worth following in any sort of Survival situation is Giddens. This guy is a deadset rank amateur dropkick who relies on setups and what not who wouldn't know the first thing about survival in the Australian "Outback".
yeah how dare people enjoy things
This is my favorite episode of Survivorman, and I've probably watched it a dozen or more times, but I never saw the sheep at 19:39 in the background until now. Find something new every time, lol
I love the endings like these thinking about how it goes down. Guy drives out to pick up Les, he sets up to film walking up when the guy gets there, goes back to get the camera, then sets up shot getting in the car to leave, they drive off and Les casually mentions they have to circle back to pick up the camera.
SURVIVORMAN the best show on earth
Jeez les you sure are a hell of a musician I can tell how happy u are after that feast by the tune you play god bless u brother from NYC u made me smile
One of my favorite episodes, the yabby oasis was pristine
I've watched from the very beginning and every time I find a big grub I am tempted to eat it. Maybe I'll try it next time
Probably the best Les has ever eaten so far, tie with the Artic Char in Artic Tundra.
If you decide to go see the Australia outback. Take plenty of water, and if you have enough room, grab 3 or 4 jam lids. What you do with the jam lids is fill them with water, and space then around your camp 20 to 30 feet out. Most times a snake or blue tongue is just looking for water. If they find some. They won’t travel to far away from it. Be safe and only travel before 2pm.
Man had a small crayfish broil and a grub worm delicacy meal in a barren looking landscape, color me impressed
im super skeptical of Bear Grylls and his Man Vs Wild episodes, but you are clearly the true survivor without question. Grylls has his camera crew and you just know they're feeding him offscreen. Doing this solo and filming by yourself for a whole week really takes balls of steel. Love your channel Les!
If you were staying for an indefinite amount of time, would you have just stayed put at the spot with the yabbies and grubs and water?
There's nothing real about Bear Grylls' show. If you search around youtube you can find people going to locations he was "surviving" at where if you changed the camera angle you would see civilization. Most famously in the Hawaii episode where he had to do a dangerous leap across a gorge to continue -- where if you turn the camera around he was a couple hundred meters from a busy highway.
There's footage of him climbing a super dangerous cliff thing and the cameraman pans over to a trail that he could've took while what he does is real hes not a survivalist he shows people how to risk their lives unnecessarily. Drinking piss has never been a real survival technique
Grills always has way too much energy and burns so many calories running and jumping all over the place, and you never see them replaced. If he really wasn’t eating like he says, he would be so slow and lethargic come day 3.
@@SteveO3232 bear grylis is a Yuppie🖕
Bear never claimed to be out surviving too be fair. His show was an over the top presentation of what you "could do" in the worst of circumstances. Obviously his show is staged and its likely youd be dead already if you had to resort to the stuff he shows.
You're not getting nearly the views you deserve. Please don't let that deter you. You do many things well, but the thing you do the most well is getting many people to think about their existence and self worth by self examination. I hereby help lift you up to continue.
People are still finding them! A couple months ago I binged everything I could find on science channel and hulu but there were a lot missing. So glad someone commented on another LS video by GQ that he had a youtube.
He was on TV for years but most people probably don’t know it’s on TH-cam now
He is blessing us during quarantine
Damn now I’m sad for that sheep. “Sure the other one was his mate” 😭😭😭 poor sheep is so sad still so close to its friend who’s clearly been dead days🥺
Seems to me that oln replayed this episode over and over again cause I’ve seen this one in particular wayy too many times
i swear he eats more and better food in these episodes than i do in my daily life XD
The master caveman at it again. Get em Les! Next episode: 3 hours of Les chasing things with a club. :D
He knew exactly where to go for water because there you can go 100's of miles and no water but he happens to walk right to water
Its called recon.
I love how this guy eats grubs and is like “mmmmm it’s delicious!” Bear grills eating a med rare steak in the woods “ ohhh feed gawd! It’s dreadful! “ 🤣
It’s a put on for the show. They all say same thing eating grubs
The woodland gangster finally got the rights to his series!!! Dude thank you so much for uploading these, youre the ultimate realness
